Chet too. He scores but is a no show in fourth quarters and does nothing defensively

He let obi get that monster jam. Forgot to box out

ehh not really. he was guarding turner there pretty far out - OKC had 3 guys there - dort came over to help and so did caruso - both could/should have boxed out. but it was caruso's guy so it's on him. he was ball watching and just stood there while obi ran past him.

I cannot **** stomach a Pacers championship man. Literally might stop watching the NBA until a new champion is crowned. Absolutely awful

If only Bridges went 15 for 15 on FGs every night. Are we really going to play this game?


You got a higher percentage of hitting free throws than going 15 for 15 on field goals.

i mean if we're going to rehash this crap again - we did call timeout at one point and then proceeded to rush and turn the ball over when brunson tried to pass to OG instead of just eat clock... so yea not sure if that was discussed in the timeout or if it's on brunson etc

there were so many things that went wrong

The orc gave him to the Pacers for free, just so he can turn around and eliminate us in the ECF, get the orc canned, and get the Pacers their first championship. :nonono:

it's funny because when the playoffs started i joked with my friend about ranking teams (in the east) we would most/least like to see get to the finals/win - and pacers were last. would have been fine with the Cavs winning. Don't love the celtics obviously but them winning again who cares. Pacers? no thanks :banghead:

Pacers are good and better if they win. okc has a free throw merchant that would ruin the nba if they follow sgas model. i know knicks lost but embrace the teams greatness and how they play. also if knicks lost to the eventual champs it makes it look better.

The only good thing about Indy winning is it derails the prevailing narrative that OKC was a lock to win it all this year which was always kind of nauseating

I hate them, but they are really playing good ball and their coach is maximizing their talent. In the 70s it seemed like a different random team one every year...maybe we are going back to that. The good news iimo us that neither team looks unbeatable.

Maybe they dont have as much mileage on them since they play the whole roster. They look slow at times but the always are fresh. We didn't look fresh even in the Detroit series. Maybe all this mins police stuff has some merit
